Thunder might waive Kyle Weaver?

Since the Thunder’s coaching staff and front office is pleased with the returning nine-man rotation, and No. 11 overall pick Cole Aldrich is entrenched in the long-term plans, that leaves Byron Mullens, D.J. White and Kyle Weaver as the most likely candidates to be on the outside looking in. Mullens has shown the most development of the trio and, as an athletic 7-foot center, is a rare commodity that the Thunder isn’t likely to throw away after only one season. White is another big man who can provide rebounding and court spacing with his mid-range shooting ability. And so it appears Weaver could be the last man standing, possibly squeezed out of a fast-developing roster. The question is how exactly will the Thunder proceed? The easiest thing for the Thunder to do could be to waive Weaver or whomever it might be that is caught in the numbers game. — Oklahoman
